>cast a gook as a chink
wow... chinks will love that
Nolan Cox
>chinese character
>korean actor
Julian Collins
Only Chinks who live in USA are autistic about these things. I'm sure real Chinks don't give a shit.
Connor Rivera
it's the opposite
Camden Wilson
That's not Brandon Lai
Adam Lee
Right.
Matthew Taylor
Rick Yune would be a good shang chi
He's a 6ft ripped asian gigachad that slams white girl pussy IRL. He's also an olympic-level martial artist, millionaire stock broker, and ex-male model. Guy has it all.
Julian Long
And he isn't chinese.
Elijah Bennett
Neither of these are good actors. The action will be done by doubles or CGI anyway. Steven Yeun is a great actor, which is key. Watch BURNING if you haven't yet.
Robert Sanchez
you dumbass that film is about asian-AMERICAN culture and singapore shits
shang chi will fully embrace all the kung fu shit and whatever chinese shit they can take from the lore. it'll do just fine. imagine it being almost 2020 and STILL betting against feige
Thomas Clark
as a chink, there's literally nothing wrong with azns gaining clout in kikewood
Isaiah Perry
know your history
kikes and asians go hand in hand like peanut butter and jelly
one of the 13 bloodline jew families that control the world is a chinese kike
Eli Anderson
You don't understand, retard, Marvel changed the Ancient One because China would bitch about tibetans, and they made a chinese version of Iron Man 3 just to please their government. Do you, seriously think, they will cast a korean and think the chinese will take it? Use your brain.
Brayden Jackson
>asian
>good actor
Ken Jeong it is.
Justin Rivera
>hiring an actor as a martial artist super hero
why won't hollywood hire a real martial artist and teach him how to act? isn't that better?
Jordan Martinez
My fetish is massive asian men
Blake Gray
I see its rly important for asians to achieve to fuck white girl.lmao
Bentley Evans
t. based retarded doubling down
iron man 3 was a test partnership disney was doing with DMG to see how their releases would do in mainland china. it's not about having a chinese lead or nothing, they don't cast nothing but chinese actors in everything else, do they? tibet shit is way more politically sensitive to the ccp than actor's nationality, shang chi isn't a real chinese person so it won't be controversial. if anything disney will take an all-encompassing "asian movie" approach and fill it with other nationalities too
they're not fucking filming mainland china, they'll use whatever actor they want, and then surround him with a few token mainland chinese actors and it'll be fine. if they get a chinese actor, then bonus points, but it's not mandatory. yeun is a good actor, he could pull it off. the chinese will take it, because the MCU is an established brand there vs star wars
Chase Rivera
Is this the r/asianmasculinty spam power hour?
Wyatt Gray
It is...
It is r/AsianMasculinity spam power hour

>shang chi isn't a real chinese person so it won't be controversial.
Oh really dude? First MCU movie about a chinese superhero, their oportunity to get sweet sweet money there, they cast a korean, let's see how well the chineese take the "he isn't real" thing.
Benjamin Lee
both of these have elements of truth but its also true that the anciant asian master is a stereotype that most people associate with poor writing or cliche. In cases like this its fitting to change the character and on some level it can be confused for creativity.
Evan Jackson
Can you redpill me or point me to a book or something about these families?
Grayson Rodriguez
Out of everything Marvel has done, this is the first one that's really a head scratcher for me beyond them just trying to cash in on the asian tribalism that BP raked in with blacks. This dude is a literally who of literally whos. Like, Banner is more or less done right? They couldn't have just had Amadeus Cho take his place? I at very least have heard of his ass, AND his mom is already in the MCU.
Mason Nguyen
Most of these questions answer themselves if you look at it from the standpoint that they have a few goals in mind
>#1 make money
>#2 treat the comics like the bible, they lead to money
>#3 make everyone happy
Shang Chi is a key to opening yet MORE marvel universe lore to the masses in such a way that relates back to our three goals. They wasted Iron Fist on Netflix and cant conceed they fucked that up or risk an unintentional lore crossover that contradicts itself (Which they must have realized was a logical possiblity long ago) and they are always patient enough to know the more popular a character is the more that needs to be built up to as an endpoint goal. This relates back to point #2.
